What is pixel transition time?
Posted: 09 Oct 2019, 06:30
Hi,
After almost 2 years on my 240hz monitor (zowie xl2540) I am back on my 144hz because I can't handle it anymore. I play high level csgo (3k+ elo faceit, rank A+ on ESEA both in EU). I like the 240hz smoothness and the lower input lag but there is a problem since day 1 and after two years is literally the same. I can't hold angles and it looks like everyone prefires me. As soon as I switch to my old 144hz monitor is like my reflex are 10 times better and the same enemies are now a lot slower, can't even shot at me. I thought it was because I had to get accustomed to my new monitor, but the problem is that when someone peeks me I can't follow him with my eyes. It should be easy with the 240hz but it isn't. My monitor isn't faulty because I have changed multiple units and the problem is still the same. When someone peeks me is like my brain has some delay to process the image. Now I always thought it was placebo etc., but yesterday I saw these graphs on rtings.

Is pixel persistence related to blur? Because I hate the blur more than inputlag. I can't stand it, I am used to CRT, I still think it's the best technology and should have never been abandoned. I hate the delay on every LCD monitor, but I can't stand motion blur. So, is pixel persistence affecting blur? Especially the two values 0-80 and 100-80 are so high on my xl2540, definitely higher than my benq 144hz. The second image is from the new omex 25f, and the values are so much better I am thinking about buying it. Can someone explain to me if that high pixel transition time can have the effect I am describing in game? Thanks a lot!
